Meet the Artist

Royal Tailor

Royal Tailor is a creatively energetic quartet of classmates (who met while attending Bible College in Indianapolis, Indiana) armed with a contagious blend of pop, R&B, hip hop and rock. After graduation they spent a year working full time with the students and youth of a church in Granite City, Ill.
On hearing Royal Tailor's music Leeland and Jack Mooring passed along the band's EP to Jason McArthur, Vice President of A&R Provident Music Group, who signed them to a record deal. Producers Aaron Lindsey, Chuck Butler and Daniel Kinner produced their debut album, Black & White, which was released on June 7, 2011.
Their hope is that their music will move feet, hearts and minds, as they encourage listeners to get closer to both God and their community -- to focus on coming together when too many people are pulling apart.

Customer Reviews For "Royal Tailor"

Royal Tailor comprises Tauren (lead singer), DJ (guitar), Blake (bass) and Jarrod (drums). Together their debut record "Black and White" released a couple of years ago have caused quite a buzz. Their single "Make a Move" not only was a no.1 record, they have even garnered a Grammy nomination. Also, they are one of the few Christian bands to be listed in Google's "50 Bands Under 30." "Royal Tailor" their most anticipated follow-up is poised to extend their successful trope further. This time around their sound that blends hip hop, pop, Gospel and dance gets even bolder and funkier. "Got that Fire" is piece of sonic genius. Incorporating an arresting rap section, piano arpeggios and a cacophonic blast of guitar, drums and vocals, "Got that Fire" is gorgeous fusion that actually works. The propulsive "Jesus Love" which features a rap section by TobyMac has some sturdy melodic hooks making us long for the Savior's love.
In an album bristling with kinetic energy, the recess comes with the album's two ballads. "Give Me Faith" expresses the prayer in our hearts for the kind of faith Jesus speaks about that can move mountains. While the heavily garish ballad "You Are My Rescue" borders more on the acceptable side. Aaron Lindsey (Marvin Sapp Israel Houghton) takes on the producer's chair for the album's most dramatic piece "Fight for Freedom (Let the Walls Fall)." Unreeling like a cinematic film, "Fight for Freedom" starts off slow with a montage of drums, guitars, rap, and even the hymn "Battle Hymn of the Republic" slowly unravelling. This epic of a song proclaims a message of liberation for those who are oppressed; this song deserves to be heard in our self-saturated world. On the whole, when Royal Tailor comes to their craft they are not into banausic sonic needlework. Rather, they are into intricate musical tapestries where threads of artistry, imagination, heart and spiritual fervor are all woven together with mastery strokes.
